My Life In The Mosh Of Ghosts - Gig 54. Kid Creole and The Coconuts, Sheffield Polytechnic, 16th May 1982.
Strange days in Sheffield back in the Spring of 1982. On one hand, we are out shaking our funky butts to the sophisticated NYC street-hustlers Kid Creole and The Coconuts, down at the old Sheffield Poly building on Pond Street; while simultaneously trying not to think about the awful news emerging from the Falklands War on an almost daily basis. As another New Yorker David Byrne said "this ain't no fooling around."Thank you to Simon Elliott-Kemp for the intro and outro music, and to Rionagh for the artwork.Sound FX courtesy of Freesound.org, with particular thanks on this episode to:Nozefian - epic trombone.Komponist - vibes.David Menke - NYC soundscape.Bronxio - hip-hop loop.Big Joe Drummer - rock kit, funk kit, congas.Rikus 246 - concert ambience.Halleck - cheering.Ultradust - cheering.LChapman - cheering.Kwahmah - office ambience.Never miss an episode.Follow me at: https://twitter.com/rogerquailhttps://www.instagram.com/rogerquail/RSS feed - https://feeds.buzzsprout.com/289673.rss
